    A few points pimp.

    1) You did appear to be unaware of the same prior to your rather confident statement. :)

    2) Can't help but notice that January 2006 is not December 2005 ;)

    3) Still waiting for you to run the figures on your prefered land reg stats. :A

    1) You are right - I took a bit of a gamble but it paid off.
    2) The data only went back to Jan 2006 and I couldn't be bothered doing any further research.
    3) If they don't do "identifiable matched pairs" then they are not the index for me (don't go mixing up what the LR who measure English house prices do with what the Scottish one does - the latter seems much inferior).

    If January 06 was relevant. Apparently, its not. ;)

    Of course you lied over on credit crunch about this one.
    No biggie. Certainly in character.

    Actually the December 05 price is there.
    But I know, its quite hard work clicking another tab on a spreadsheet eh. :rotfl:

    ESPC doesn't do "identifiable matched pairs" either.
    What a shame.

    Maybe we should establish the baseline for both indexes.
    Then we can apply a bit of credible analysis.

    But you seem to be stumbling at the first hurdle.

    I'll leave the diversionary gambits to year dear boy.
    Why don't you do your homework before flapping your yap.


    Incidentally, whilst land reg does indeed take steps to compare "like for like" for types of properties, do please clarify how this changes the fact that the overall averages for all properties over all areas are still just over all averages.

    Is "like for like" the same as "identifiable matched pairs"?
